Date, location, and family admission
- Date: Saturday, November 14, 2026
- Start time: noon
- Location: Brooklyn Arts District, Wilmington, North Carolina
- Age policy: all ages
- Children: ages 12 and under enter free with a ticketed adult
Families should review the organizer’s current admission instructions before purchasing or arriving. The free-entry policy is tied to a ticketed adult, so make that part of your group’s plan. The published noon start gives you an arrival reference, but it does not establish an individual artist’s performance time.
The announced BAD Day lineup
The announced artists are The Revivalists, Grace Potter, Greensky Bluegrass, Ripe, Futurebirds, and Lady Die. Review the official BAD Day website for updates and any detailed performance schedule before organizing your day around a particular act.
Pick the performances your group most wants to see, then leave enough flexibility to follow the final schedule. If you are coordinating with friends arriving separately, agree on a meeting plan before heading into the district.
GA, VIP, and the separate BAD Night event
General admission and VIP tickets are offered through Ticketmaster. Compare the current descriptions to understand exactly what each includes, then review fees and purchase conditions in the checkout summary. Avoid assuming that an admission label includes an extra event.
BAD Night at Brooklyn Arts Center is separately ticketed and is excluded from BAD Day admission. If you want to attend both, check the BAD Night details and its separate ticket requirement before making evening plans.
Affiliate disclosure: We may earn a commission from ticket-link or promo-code purchases. Try code ENCORE at checkout where a code field is available. Confirm eligibility and the final order total before paying; a specific discount is not guaranteed.
